Hi,

I got help from the list, and i= n the end I did the following (I have ConTeXt installed in $HOME/ConTeXt-lm= tx/). I hope it is complete.

ln -s $HOME/ConTeXt-l= mtx/tex/texmf-context/context/data/vscode/extensions/context $HOME/.vscode/= extensions/

Then I added a task file (also ess= entially found here, I think):

%%% Begin of file $= HOME/.config/Code/User/tasks.json

{

=C2=A0"nam= e" : "context",
=C2=A0"tasks" : [
=C2=A0 =C2= =A0 {
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "label": "ConTeXt LuaMe= taTeX",
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "type": "shell&q= uot;,
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "command": "export PATH= =3D$HOME/ConTeXt-lmtx/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/:$PATH;mtxrun --autogenerate -= -script context '${file}'",
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 &qu= ot;args": [],
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "options": {=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "cwd": "${fileDir= name}"
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 },
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2= =A0 "group": {
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "= ;kind": "build",
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2= =A0 "isDefault": true
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 },
=C2=A0= =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 "problemMatcher": []
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 }
= ]
}

%%% End of file

Then, in the = extension setting inside code, I had to enable the color scheme for context= .

Then it works to compile with ctrl+shift+B.

PS I also have some a= dd-on for LaTeX installed, and for that reason I have started to use the fi= le extension .mkiv for ConTeXt. Then the add-ons don't clash.
